Anybody have recommendations on a good shop for repairing damage from a keying?

My friend's black car just got keyed by some jack@ss... Also needs to have overspray removed, as a result of a big house-painting job nearby that spread crap all over the car. It is a Toyota, so I am not sure if it is a clearcoat or a single-stage paint job.

Looking in particular for a shop in the city of San Francisco or nearby. Especially good if they could do both jobs at once.

TIA -- all recommendations appreciated.

Sister's Scion tC got a 3 foot key mark. I know how you feel man. :( For her birthday I stole the car from her and took it to a body shop. I had the guy buff the whole area out and repaint it. Looks brand new.....

With a key mark it goes through the whole clear coat, so there really isn't any way to repair it with scratch remover......

Try googling "permatouch". I just wrote a long message about my experience but I can not post URLs so I lost all of it and I'm not going to type it in again.

Just had the '02 M3 done this morning using this system. Results are very good. Rock chipped area of car went from a '2' to an '8' on a scale of 1 to 10.

err. It was awhile ago. But i think it was around $400....This guy deals in cash and credit card. But he gives a major deal if you go through with cash. With credit a credit card. It would of been 700 dollars. It was such a deal. After winter I am going to get my front bumber repainted b/c of rock chips

The permatouch deal on the '02 M3 was $200 and the front of the M3 was blasted from alot of track time. Just waxed it this afternoon and it looks great.
